I had assembled a playlist of thirty songs to commemorate the anniversary of my birth. These songs were selected from my personal digital archive and have some sort of relevance to my existence. However, the problem with this sort of thing is: the songs don't necessarily go well together. I've tried to make them fit as best as possible, but I don't know if anyone besides me (since I know and like all the songs) would enjoy listening to it. Here is the list: If anyone wants a copy on compact disc, I will happily produce one for you.
